My whole family are incapable of lying. It's just not in our DNA. I cannot comprehend how Pam Bondi doesn't explode from all the hot air.

In the morning, if she's not clawing my pillow to wake me up, Mittens is keeping watch on the nightstand in the dark. #caturday

I feel absolutely no guilt about watching behind the scenes videos of Brigerton S4 all morning in my PJs.

Today, after 14 years of being a traditionally published author, I received my first royalty check. It is somehow thrilling and depressing at the same time.

We feel the same about the A-hole in chief here in the US. Obama made same sex marriage legal in all 50 states, and now my nibbling can't have an X on their passport.

Shame on @nytimes.com for painting the orange turd as the victor of yesterday's events at Davos.

I wrote a subtle OFMD reference into my new novel, and when I ran across it today while proofreading the manuscript it made me giggle with glee.

Going to my first ever con (Galaxycon San Jose) with my first ever cosplay (won my division) and meeting Con & Kristian, and asking Nathan my burning question about the shoes when he gets thrown overboard, all in one fantastic weekend. #longliveofmd

Up late doomscrolling last night about our unhinged president and his illegal actions against another country for oil. I have lived through this before and it makes me sick. Wouldn't it be great if Congress, you know, did something?

An announcement saying that Warner Brothers will reject Paramount's bid in favor of Netflix.

Possibly our best hope for getting season 3. Ending 2025 on a high note.

In August I created a blank list of "100 things we got rid of in 2025." There are 5 spaces left on the list and by God I will throw away 5 things tomorrow if it's the last thing I do. #declutter
